Adrianna picked a wine glass for herself and Liam picked drinks for himself and Fleur. He took them to where she was standing. In the end, Adrianna was left alone on the bar stool. She sipped the entire glass of wine within a few minutes and ordered another one. It wasn't long before all the single boys started showing interest in her and sure enough, she was immediately flanked by several boys. She sat on the bar stool over there. When one of them began to sing for her, she couldn't help letting out hearty laughs as she enjoyed her evening.
For a moment, she forgot everything as she sipped another glass. Her brown dress that had accentuated her curves was now revealing her thighs. She had crossed her legs and her white skin against the brown dress looked inviting. Few strands of hair escaped her high bun and were playing on her cheeks and she looked beautiful.
Suddenly she saw Niiya who was talking to Ookashi and Nate. She smiled at him and raised her glass. If Dmitri could do that to him, why couldn't she? Niiya smiled back and slowly walked towards her. He saw that so many boys had already flanked her, but he ignored them as he went and sat next to her.
"How are you doing Adri?"
Adrianna looked at him and spoke in an intoxicated voice, "Very fine. Can't you see~?" she pointed her wine glass to all the boys around and laughed. She expected Niiya at the party, but she knew that Ookashi's parents wouldn't come.
Niiya picked a glass of whisky and stood beside her. He could see that there was something wrong with her and Dmitri. He gulped the first glass and grinned. This was his chance!
As their entertainment continued, Dmitri entered the venue flanked by Cora and Keisha. Instead of looking at Nate and Ookashi, his gaze immediately went to Adrianna who was surrounded by boys who vied for her attention. What caught his attention was how she seemed to be enjoying herself out there.
Cora and Keisha also noticed her and they couldn't feel any better. Keisha laughed inwards, while Cora left them and walked ahead. "Nate, hello dear. So sorry for the morning." She presented Ookashi with a pair of earrings and left them to meet some of her own people.
Dmitri came forward along with Keisha. He gave a bear hug to Nate and congratulated the two of them along with Keisha. Ookashi and Nate were both shocked to see him walking together with Keisha. Nate asked if things were fine between him and Adrianna but he didn't answer.
Keisha smiled, handed Ookashi her gift and walked away from there. "Who invited her?" asked Ookashi, feeling like kicking her out.
"Perhaps she came along with Cora," replied Nate.
Dmitri walked to where Adrianna was sitting and noticed that Niiya was also there. With a stoic expression, he asked the bartender to make c.o.c.ktail for him and Keisha. Adrianna was now two glasses down and on her way to the third one. She was extra chirpy and giggling stupidly. As soon as she saw him, she raised her glass then shouted, "Hi there handsome!"
It was Niiya's turn to be jealous. He held Adrianna's hand and said, "How about a dance Adri? It has been ages since we have met."
"Yes, sure!" she said as she jumped from her place. The music was playing and there were quite a few couples dancing on the floor. Niiya held her hand and guided her. As the music played, Adrianna started swaying with him.
When he saw her being so shameless, Dmitri followed suit and took Keisha's hand. He brought her to the dance floor, on which they started to dance.
As the rhythm of the music picked up, so did the steps of Niiya. He twirled Adrianna around him. She giggled as she twirled. As the music stopped, Niiya brought her forward and dipped her. But just as Niiya brought his face close to hers, Adrianna found herself being snatched away from him.
"What are you doing Dmitri?" she shouted.
Not able to withstand his anger and her flirting with Niiya, Dmitri had pulled her from his embrace and hauled her over his shoulder. He started carrying her out of the venue, much to the bewilderment of people around.
Niiya moved to block his way. "Put her down! She doesn't want to do anything with you."
"Stay away from the husband and wife, Niiya," said Dmitri rubbing on his face that he was an outsider in their marriage.
Niiya gritted his teeth as he watched the two of them going out as Keisha followed them. "Dmitri, Dmitri, what are you doing? Why can't you leave her? She doesn't deserve you! Look how she embarrassed you were in front of all the people out there because of her?"
